Absolutely proprietary. Why not simply link to the companies download page? That way you would avoid any involvement with their lawyers. | |

Actually I already downloaded the file and did what I needed with it, but I'm writing a detailed guide and having a simple command to download the file would be nice. Sure, I can wget to that direct link, and that's what I did to get the file into my Linux server, but if the version changes I'm not willing to always keep the guide up-to-date with the latest url. | |

The result I get is javascript, suggesting you need javascript to get the data, which neither curl or wget would support directly. The page mentions https://www.articy.com/download/ad3/Setup_ArticyServer_Release_3.1.37.40510.exe which is probably what you actually want
